By reading the landing page, I feel vomited on. How is sqlite suddenly an inference engine? Why would I even? What is javascript doing in sqlite? Why any of these things have anything to do with sqlite?
If you don't understand what we are building, that doesn't mean you need to post such an inappropriate comment.
Just to clarify a point that seems to come up in several comments: we are backed by SQLite’s author, and we have explicit permission to use “SQLite” in the company and product names.
We believe SQLite on the edge is a major opportunity, and our focus is on building genuinely new features and infrastructure on top of it.
Normally, I hate to comment on things like license, trademark etc. as it is not what I understand deeply nor I think my comments would make any difference since I am not any Lawyer etc.
But really interested in maybe understanding this a little better.
sqllite is in Public domain. From their website 'All code authors, and representatives of the companies they work for, have signed affidavits dedicating their contributions to the public domain and originals of those signed affidavits are stored in a firesafe at the main offices of Hwaci.[1]'
Now if one of the authors is behind this or funding this, how can they still use the domain to a personal benefit? I do not understand that. Does that mean, if I hold on to a good domain hack of something that is highly regarded in public domain will it not be trademark infringement irrespective of whether somebody from that company is behind or not?
Hello, SQLite Cloud's founder here. We are backed by SQLite's author, and we have the full rights to use SQLite in the company's and products' names.
No. I have no clue how they aren't getting demolished by lawyers for trademark infringement in the first place

OP: what exactly is this?
SQLite Cloud founder(s), if you're out there: Is this a real company? I'm not quite sure it's legal to use "SQLite" in your company/product name that way - it's trademarked and is implying some sort of connection between you and Hwaci (creators of SQLite).
